Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Aldosterone promotes renal sodium and water reabsorption and excretion of potassium,thus,increasing blood volume.
Aldosterone secretion would cause increased plasma osmolality.
Secretion of aldosterone decreases potassium levels because it causes potassium excretion.
Secretion of aldosterone does not promote the development of localized edema; it affects blood volume.
